BW 1356 speedometer adapter

Does anyone know where I can find a tail section for a BW 1356 transfer case that has the speedometer adapter in it. I am putting a 9inch rear end in and this will cause me to lose my speedometer. Has been said that there is a tail shaft for a BW1356 that has the speedometer adapter in it. Currently my truck has the speed sensor for the rear end. 9 inch does not support this. Any help?

I know the '87-'89 have them in the tail shaft, but I think there is more to just swapping the tailshaft. Junkyards have them all day long, probably can get one at a u-pull it pretty cheap.

Thanks, for the information. I will need it inorder to run an analog speedometer. All the wiring in the truck is going away, and is going to be replaced.

Swap

Maybe we can work out a deal to just swap tail shafts. Am willing to ship mine first if you would like. My truck is currently down for the rearend upgrade.
